I can still picture this book on my childhood bookshelf, but I do not remember this story at all. Perhaps I never read it or had it read to me.
The setting is well described - I can imagine myself jumping around the mountainside with Heidi and the goats. The backstory and beginning set you up for a drama, but the book reads like an advertisement for isolated mountain life or a morality play. The book covers a few years of Heidi's childhood. Heidi, in her innocence and with her empathy, brings joy to everyone. Along the way, she learns to trust in the dear lord.
I read this Book in the past and really liked it. The cover is very nice, and story too. I think that its a book for Children ,but also for Adults. I read this when I was a Child. Now I m adult, but still like this Book
